For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me.5 “Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.Music: "Rest in the Shadow" by Julian & Melissa Wiggins,Used with permission.

This means a dailycommitment to doing the work.”—Dr. Nicole LePera, The Holistic PsychologistOur purpose is not to create a perfect life for our kids or ourpeople. It is to show our humanness and to raise our kids toknow they are deeply loved by their deeply imperfect parents.And to show our people we are flawed humans who are doingthe best with what we know, right now.Our work is to become aware of our traumas and triggersand the impacts they can have, if unchecked, and then todecide which ones have the biggest impact on our people.Have you ever met an adult with no issues? No parentissues or people-pleasing, boundary issues or control issues?Me, neither... Not sure I want to or need to, either.What if, each year, we focused on different parts ofourselves instead of tackling all our trauma and hoping we canbe perfect for those close to us?It can be so overwhelming, when you begin work in yourlife with a coach, mentor, therapist, guide, or pastor.

Mark 5:24-34 (from the Archive)New Living Translation24 Jesus went with him, and all the people followed, crowding around him. 25 A woman in the crowd had suffered for twelve years with constant bleeding. 26 She had suffered a great deal from many doctors, and over the years she had spent everything she had to pay them, but she had gotten no better. In fact, she had gotten worse. 27 She had heard about Jesus, so she came up behind him through the crowd and touched his robe. 28 For she thought to herself, “If I can just touch his robe, I will be healed.” 29 Immediately the bleeding stopped, and she could feel in her body that she had been healed of her terrible condition.30 Jesus realized at once that healing power had gone out from him, so he turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my robe?”31 His disciples said to him, “Look at this crowd pressing around you. How can you ask, ‘Who touched me?'”32 But he kept on looking around to see who had done it. 33 Then the frightened woman, trembling at the realization of what had happened to her, came and fell to her knees in front of him and told him what she had done. 34 And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace. Your suffering is over.”Music: "Rest in the Shadow" by Julian & Melissa Wiggins,Used with permission.

Get three large measures of your best flour, knead it into dough, and bake some bread.”  8 When the food was ready, Abraham took some yogurt and milk and the roasted meat, and he served it to the men.

THE WORKFollow I am ResponsibleI didn't decide to be responsible for my ONE.Life. I becameresponsible, one action at a time. It's not a decision, but adoing.I have chosen for over fourteen years to show up formeetings, to have hotline parties, answer the phone, and topick up newcomers, like Sheri did for me. I have chosen to goon retreats, to call my sponsor, and to be a sponsor. It's action.It was my thought to call the hotline. It was my decision toget in Sheri's car.What are you thinking about now?Who are you blaming?What are you blaming?Maybe you had a rough childhood. Maybe you wereabused. Maybe you lost a parent young. Maybe it is none ofthose, and yet you still know there is more to this ONE.Life.Maybe the victim mentality was taught or learned, and maybeit was neither. And yet here you are.List areas of your life you are responsible for:List areas you wish you were, and ways you canchange that reality:What action can you take today? This is not, I repeatnot a thought prompt. This is a do prompt.What can you do today to stop blaming and startdoing?Are you terrified? Good. Do it with nausea and butterflies.Be so close to not doing it, but do it anyway.When my clients join my six-month coaching intensive,EMPOWERED.Life, we start here. They are not addicted todrugs, alcohol, sex, or money. Often, they are addicted topleasing people, to perfectionism, to busyness—things thatare quite literally as deadly as my addiction.Often, they blame the kids' sports schedules and theirfamily for stepping on their boundaries. They claim it'sbecause they have the job they have and they can't change.They tell me they were born in a certain state and they cannot“just move.”What if all that changed just by taking some actions ofresponsibility and not blaming your kids and parents orbowing down to every societal norm we have been fed?What is one action you can do today, and for the nextseven days, you can repeat it without fail?If one action could change your ONE.Life in a positiveway, what would it be?As you begin to answer these questions, do it with thecloud of excitement over you. With the hope and joy of whatself-responsibility can mean in your life. What can choosing toUnFollow blame do for you, in the most exciting way.Choosing to Follow, I am responsible is exciting. It'sfreedom. It's joy. It's possibility. It's letting go and forgiving, soyou can have the ONE.Life you desire.Get your copy of Melissa's bestselling book, UnFollow: Question Everything with Excitement, and download the FREE WORKBOOK!Curious about Group Coaching?

Mark 12:28-34New Living Translation28 One of the teachers of religious law was standing there listening to the debate. He realized that Jesus had answered well, so he asked, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”29 Jesus replied, “The most important commandment is this: ‘Listen, O Israel! The Lord our God is the one and only Lord. 30 And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.' 31 The second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.' No other commandment is greater than these.”32 The teacher of religious law replied, “Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth by saying that there is only one God and no other. 33 And I know it is important to love him with all my heart and all my understanding and all my strength, and to love my neighbour as myself. This is more important than to offer all of the burnt offerings and sacrifices required in the law.”34 Realizing how much the man understood, Jesus said to him, “You are not far from the Kingdom of God.” And after that, no one dared to ask him any more questions.Music: "Rest in the Shadow" by Julian & Melissa Wiggins,Used with permission.

And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. 2 We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honour beside God's throne. 3 Think of all the hostility he endured from sinful people; then you won't become weary and give up.Music: "Rest in the Shadow" by Julian & Melissa Wiggins,Used with permission.

He breathed the breath of life into the man's nostrils, and the man became a living person.8 Then the Lord God planted a garden in Eden in the east, and there he placed the man he had made. 9 The Lord God made all sorts of trees grow up from the ground—trees that were beautiful and that produced delicious fruit.
